*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
CONTAINS SPOILERS! First, I'm a huge fan of Patrick Stewart. I think his voice lends a lot of credence to this video. This documentary, which I watched on the 'History International' channel, was not only well-narrated, but it also had a high historically-objective quality. It covers the mysterious post-Roman occupation person made famous in the movie "King Arthur" as well as the consequent mythologizing of the character. However, this mysterious character's name is not know, but his bravery on the battlefield is apparently what stood out. It was later that this character was named "Arturius". Later, during the Middle Ages, this person was resurrected by various writers of the time in an attempt to create the perfect chivalry code. The myth of Arthur as we know it today was born during this time. However, other elements were added later as well: Gwenivere, the love triangle, Excalubur, etc .. All legends are covered here, but the production focuses mostly on written accounts. The program successfully parses through what might be real and what is not. If you're looking for an excellent in-depth visual of the King Arthur legends and myths, then this is your video.
